My IBM Thinkpad R40 laptop stopped working.The IBM Think Pad screen comes up and then with a beep,the system shuts down.Went to a support shop and found some IC on the system board was damaged.Now,for data recovery,the HDD was removed and attached to another system but the systems do not read it. Tried with an external attachment,Windows displays the message "USB Device not recognised"-USB device connected malfunctioned.Can anyone tell me if data recovery is at all possible from my HDD?
